Social directives for Pelican static blog generator.

Easy linking to social networks content through simple inline directives.

Compatibility

pelican-social is compatible with Pelican 3.3+ and Python 2.7.

Installation

Install the plugin via pip:

~$ pip install pelican-social

Usage

To load the plugin, you have to add it in your settings file.

PLUGINS = (
    'social',
)

Once loaded you have access to social rst directives.

Each directive can be called in two forms:

:network:`target`

:network:`Displayed text <target>`

As much as possible, the directive give a secure (https) link.

Twitter

You can use both :twitter: and :tw: directives to link to a Twitter profile, they are equivalent. Using an @ in username will only change the displayed username if a custom display is not specified.

Exemple:

:twitter:`username`
:twitter:`@username`
:twitter:`User <username>`
:twitter:`User <@username>`

will result in:

<a href="https://twitter.com/username">username</a>
<a href="https://twitter.com/username">&#64;username</a>
<a href="https://twitter.com/username">User</a>
<a href="https://twitter.com/username">User</a>

Google+

Google+ is tricky with usernames. If you are famous and lucky you can have a custom username in +MyUser form. If not you will have a 21 digits identifier.

Exemple:

:gplus:`username`
:gplus:`User <username>`

will result in:

<a href="https://plus.google.com/username">username</a>
<a href="https://plus.google.com/username">User</a>

Github

You can use both :github: and :gh: directive to link to github profiles, repositories and issues/pull-requests (github will autmatically redirect you to the pull-request if one is associated with the issue).

The following form are accepted:

username

repository

issue/pull-request

username/repository#issue

Exemple:

:github:`username`
:github:`User <username>`
:github:`username/repository`
:github:`Repository <username/repository>`
:github:`username/repository#2`
:github:`Issue #2 <username/repository#2>`

will result in:

<a href="https://github.com/username">username</a>
<a href="https://github.com/username">User</a>
<a href="https://github.com/username/repository">repository</a>
<a href="https://github.com/username/repository">Repository</a>
<a href="https://github.com/username/repository/issues/2">#2</a>
<a href="https://github.com/username/repository/issues/2">Issue #2</a>
